Description

I have a Telerik UI Data Grid for ASP.NET MVC with regular filters and local filtering. How can I add custom filters and combine the regular filters with the custom ones?

Solution

To allow the application of both filter types, wrap the custom filter in an additional filter with the "OR" criteria.

For the complete implementation of the approach, refer to this runnable example, which applies the filter method of the DataSource.
